📖 Usage

👉 Check out the full documentation here!

divider allows you to divide a string or an array of strings using index positions or delimiters.

📌 Basic Usage

import { divider } from '@nyaomaru/divider';

// Divide a string by index positions
const helloArray = divider('hello', 1, 3);
// ['h', 'el', 'lo']

const [hello1, hello2, ...restHello] = divider('hello', 1, 3, 4);
// hello1 = 'h'
// hello2 = 'el'
// restHello = ['l', 'o']

// Divide a string using a character separator
const divideWithString = divider('hello', 'e');
// ['h', 'llo']

const divideWithMultipleString = divider('hello', 'l');
// ['he', 'o']

// Divide an array of strings
const words = ['hello', 'world'];
const dividedWords = divider(words, 2);
// [['he', 'llo'], ['wo', 'rld']]
const dividedWordsWithFlattenOption = divider(words, 2, { flatten: true });
// ['he', 'llo', 'wo', 'rld']

📌 Advanced Usage

// Mixed usage of indexes and characters
const complexDivide = divider('hello world', 3, 'o');
// ['hel', 'l', ' w', 'rld']

// Nested array handling
const nestedArray = divider(['hello', 'new world'], ' ', 2);
// [['he', 'llo'], ['ne', 'w wor', 'ld']]

// Flatten option to get a single array
const flatArray = divider(['hello', 'new world'], ' ', 2, { flatten: true });
// ['he', 'llo', 'ne', 'w', 'wor', 'ld']

📌 dividerFirst() Usage

dividerFirst() returns only the first divided element from the result.

import { dividerFirst } from '@nyaomaru/divider';

const firstElement = dividerFirst('hello world', ' ');
// 'hello'

const firstArrayElement = dividerFirst(['hello', 'world'], 2);
// 'he'

📌 dividerLast() Usage

dividerLast() returns only the last divided element from the result.

import { dividerLast } from '@nyaomaru/divider';

const firstElement = dividerLast('hello world', ' ');
// 'world'

const firstArrayElement = dividerLast(['hello', 'world'], 2);
// 'rld'

📌 dividerLoop() Usage

import { dividerLoop } from '@nyaomaru/divider';

// Divide string into chunks of given size
const result = dividerLoop('abcdefghij', 3);
// ['abc', 'def', 'ghi', 'j']

// Supports flatten option for string[]
const result2 = dividerLoop(['hello', 'world'], 2, { flatten: true });
// ['he', 'll', 'ow', 'or', 'ld']

// You can also control where to start dividing using `startOffset`
const result3 = dividerLoop('abcdefghij', 3, { startOffset: 1 });
// ['abcd', 'efg', 'hij']

// Combine with flatten and trim
const result4 = dividerLoop(['  hello ', 'world  '], 2, {
  flatten: true,
  trim: true,
  startOffset: 1,
});
// ['h', 'el', 'lo', 'wor', 'ld']

// Limit the number of chunks using maxChunks
const result5 = dividerLoop('abcdefghij', 3, { maxChunks: 2 });
// ['abc', 'defghij']

📌 dividerNumberString() Usage

import { dividerNumberString } from '@nyaomaru/divider';

// Split numbers and letters from a string
const result = dividerNumberString('abc123def456');
// ['abc', '123', 'def', '456']

// Split each string in a string[]
const result2 = dividerNumberString(['abc123', '45z']);
// [['abc', '123'], ['45', 'z']]

// Flatten option
const result3 = dividerNumberString(['abc123', '45z'], { flatten: true });
// ['abc', '123', '45', 'z']

🎯 General Options

flatten (default: false)

const words = ['hello', 'world'];
const result = divider(words, 2);
// [['he', 'llo'], ['wo', 'rld']]

const result = divider(words, 2, { flatten: true });
// ['he', 'llo', 'wo', 'rld']

trim (default: false)

const result = divider('  hello world  ', 7, { trim: true });
// ['hello', 'world']

const result = divider(['  a  ', ' b  c '], ' ', {
  flatten: true,
  trim: true,
});
// ['a', 'b', 'c']

exclude (default: 'none')

Control how segments like empty strings ('') or whitespace-only strings (' ') are handled.

// Remove truly empty strings
const result = divider('a,,b', ',', { exclude: 'empty' });
// ['a', 'b']

// Remove both empty and whitespace-only strings
const result = divider('a, ,b', ',', { exclude: 'whitespace' });
// ['a', 'b']

// You can combine with `trim` for clearer results
const result = divider('a, ,b', ',', {
  trim: true,
  exclude: 'whitespace',
});
// ['a', 'b']
